You need to enter this type of 'number' as text... precede with an
apostrophe ( ' ).

I assume you will NOT be doing any mathematically calculations with
this 'number'.

For numbers, Excel will only display 15 digits... it's long story that
is discussed in depth in other posts... do a search if you want more
details...
